Quick answer
Assemble the Ivy 3 upper trunk in about two minutes by unscrewing the old perch and screwing on the new one, then style it with a soft bolster and toy to make it inviting.
Why the Ivy 3 Upper Trunk is a smart upgrade
The Ivy 3 Upper Trunk replaces an existing perch on your cat tree, so you refresh the look and comfort without buying a whole new structure. It includes a round bolstered perch with raised sides and a pom-pom ball toy, giving your cat a cozy spot to nap and play.
Because it's designed for cats under 15 lbs, it suits most average-sized felines. If your cat is heavier, check the weight limit before installing to avoid strain on the tree.
Step-by-step assembly and styling
- Remove the existing perch: Unscrew the current perch from the tree trunk. Keep the screws and any washers in a safe spot—you'll reuse them for the new perch. Check that the threads are clean before reinstalling to ensure a snug fit.
- Attach the Ivy 3 upper trunk: Align the new perch's mounting hole with the trunk's screw hole, then screw it on firmly. Hand-tighten first, then give it a gentle extra turn—avoid over-tightening, which can strip the threads. Give the perch a slight wiggle to confirm it's secure before letting your cat test it.
- Style the perch: Fluff the bolster and position the pom-pom ball toy so it hangs within your cat's reach. Place the perch in a spot with a view—near a window or in a quiet corner—so your cat feels safe and entertained. If your cat seems hesitant, sprinkle a little catnip on the bolster to encourage exploration.
